From IOUs to investment rounds: The brutal truth about raising funds in Africa - and why giving away 50% equity almost destroyed everything. In this raw and unfiltered episode of Konnected Minds, Francis pulls back the curtain on the harsh realities of building a business from absolute zero in Ghana. Starting with nothing but determination, he reveals how he wrote IOUs to co-founders he couldn't pay, got evicted by a landlady for "causing too much rubbish," and transformed a single themed donut order for Uber into their first investment round. The conversation exposes a fundamental truth most African entrepreneurs miss: investors aren't charity organizations looking to help you - they're multipliers seeking documented proof that their money will grow. Francis shares how most founders fail at fundraising because everything lives in their heads with zero documentation - no sales ledgers, no expense tracking, no evidence that invested capital will multiply. He opens up about the devastating cost of desperation, revealing how he gave away over 50% equity to his first investor, losing majority ownership while fighting to remain CEO of the company he built. "People change when money comes," he reflects, comparing it to getting married only to have your spouse forget you exist once they make money. Critical lessons revealed: • Why the fastest response time (minutes, not days) won them the Uber deal that changed everything • The IOU system that kept co-founders loyal when there was literally no money • How to think like an investor seeking multiplication, not a founder seeking help • Why "the economy is bad" is a lie - money just changed hands, it didn't disappear • The exact documentation framework that attracts investment vs endlessly chasing it • The painful reality of equity vs debt - and why he'd choose debt if starting over • Why working backwards from desired profit beats hoping for organic growth • The mentor advantage he didn't have - and why it cost him years of unnecessary grinding From selling phones at UTC Accra in secondary school to building multiple ventures, Francis demonstrates that raising funds isn't about crafting sob stories - it's about presenting data that shows clear paths to multiplication. He challenges the notion that there's no money in Ghana, revealing instead that there's "loose money" everywhere, desperately seeking documented opportunities to grow. The episode takes an unexpected turn as Francis discusses building business with his wife, emphasizing that communication and understanding trump everything else in partnership. He shares the painful decision to close a flashy shop after 11 months when data showed delivery donuts outsold everything else - proving that listening to market data beats emotional attachment to ideas. This isn't another generic fundraising tutorial - it's the unvarnished truth about what it takes to attract investment in African markets, including the mistakes that cost founders their companies, the systems that separate fundable businesses from eternal ideas, and why most Ghanaian businesses fail because they never listen to what the market is actually telling them.

In this special republished episode of the ProductLed Podcast, Wes Bush and Laura Kluz discuss The Product-Led Playbook—and announce that we're giving away the entire book for FREE on October 7, 2025. This playbook is the no-BS guide to actually implementing PLG, based on analysis of 324+ companies, and explores why some product-led companies see millions in ARR while others crash and burn. The book is structured around nine components, which guide companies from building a solid foundation to scaling for exponential growth. The first stage includes crafting a winning strategy, identifying the ideal user, and creating an intentional product model. The second stage involves establishing a frictionless onboarding process and developing powerful pricing strategies. The final stage focuses on actionable data, growth processes, and team development. The playbook offers a step-by-step approach to operationalizing PLG and is full of templates and canvases designed for team collaboration. Intended primarily for B2B software founders and early-stage go-to-market teams, this playbook provides a structured method for effectively implementing PLG—and it's yours for free next week.

In this episode of Content Logistics, host Baylee Gunnel sits down with David Ebner, President and Founder at Content Workshop. They explore the tension small B2B marketing teams face when deciding whether to gate their content or give away their “secret sauce” for free. David unpacks why trust, not tactics, is at the heart of effective content and how building that trust takes time and a willingness to share real knowledge without always asking for something in return.David explains that people pay for expertise in action—not just for information. He encourages teams to focus less on guarding processes and more on helping their audience solve problems. He shares stories about the long-term value of generosity and how “corporate philanthropy” in content can deliver real business results, even when the payoff isn't immediate.Throughout the conversation, David stresses the need to align content strategy with audience needs, measure success by engagement over vanity metrics, and remember that great marketing serves people first.

If you had hundreds of millions of dollars, how would you use it? Craigslist founder Craig Newmark faces this exact “problem”—and he's working hard to give his fortune away to nonprofits tackling some of society's most urgent challenges. In this week's episode, Craig and I discuss the early days of Craigslist, its radical “revenue-minimization” strategy, and how its simple tools changed the classified ads game in the late '90s. He told me how Sunday school values shaped his approach to business, why he demoted himself to customer service rep, and what he learned by hiring a CEO to run the company he built. Our conversation explores the art of giving money away strategically: from supporting veterans and military families to investing in cybersecurity and protecting democracy. We also get personal - talking favorite TV shows, the pros and cons of AI, and the big question: how much is enough? Listen now.

We often give our power away to external factors or other people's decisions, like sliding all our chips across the casino table and letting someone else bet on our behalf.   Mental blocks often show up disguised as facts. Our minds tell us we can't move forward until we have approval, more resources, or a change in circumstances. You'll learn how to spot these mental blocks and recognise when you're betting on others instead of yourself. I'll explain how making a small move, even when the full picture feels out of reach, can get you back in the game. We'll also explore how changing the language you use can help unlock new possibilities for action.   Get full show notes, transcript, and more information here: https://maisiehill.com/245

Welcome to The CJ Moneyway Show + GI: The States Capital, where we uncover the bold moves behind true legacy, success, and purpose. Today, we sit down with a truly extraordinary guest — Carl B. Barney, a serial entrepreneur and visionary author behind The Happiness Experiment. After surviving a near-fatal plane crash, Carl made a radical decision: to transform the rest of his life by giving away his fortune—not after death, but while still alive. His concept of “Happiness Grants” flips the traditional view of wealth, happiness, and legacy upside down. In this deep and thoughtful conversation, we discuss: • The philosophy behind The Happiness Experiment • Carl's mindset shift after a life-altering experience • How philanthropy can drive purpose and happiness • The real meaning of giving while living

Here's a question that'll drive you absolutely crazy: How do you sell professional services without giving away everything for free? That's the burning question from Laura and Adam, attorneys who are struggling with the classic professional services dilemma. Their intake team and attorneys want to showcase their expertise by giving away everything for free during sales conversations. Meanwhile, they're also trying to figure out what kind of salesperson they need to hire to sell high-value legal services effectively. If you're nodding your head right now, you're not alone. This is the most common trap I see professional service providers fall into, and it's bleeding them dry while their competitors who keep their mouths shut are crushing them in conversion rates. The Professor Problem: Why Being Smart Is Making You Broke Laura nailed it when she described their current approach as "professorial." They show their talents and knowledge, thinking, "How can they not want to hire us because we're so brilliant?" But here's the brutal, kick-you-in-the-gut truth: The more you teach on sales calls, the lower your closing ratio becomes. Period. No exceptions. The less information you give, the higher your closing ratio goes. This isn't just theory—it's what I've learned from years of training consultants and professional service providers. When practitioners get on sales calls, it's incredibly hard not to show all our cards or teach people during the conversation. But you're not running a free consultation. You're running a sales process. Why Information Is Your Leverage—Not Your Gift Here's what Laura and Adam's team needs to understand: Information is your leverage. Are you going to give your leverage away for free? The key is teaching your intake team how to ask questions and bring the person through a process. You're connecting with prospects, learning about them, getting them talking about their fears, helping them articulate what they want, and then building a quick value bridge to why they should sign with your firm. Then—and only then—do you ask for the commitment. When prospects start fishing for free legal advice, you shut it down fast with this exact response: "That's a really, really good question. And that's exactly why we need to get you booked with an attorney so that you can sit down with a professional who can walk you through that strategy. Let's go ahead and get you signed up." The High-Stakes Hire: What to Look for in Professional Services Salespeople When you're selling high-value services instead of products, you need a special type of salesperson. Here are the three make-or-break qualities that will determine whether your hire is a rockstar or a disaster: They Need to Be Street Smart - Not book-smart—street-smart. They need to think on their feet because you've got different types of people coming to you with different cases. If someone is used to just following a script, they're not the right person for you. High Emotional Intelligence with Outcome Drive - This is the tricky balance. They need high emotional intelligence to quickly connect with people and build relationships. But they also need enough outcome drive to ask for the commitment and not let people off the hook. You're essentially running a one-call close. A person comes in, you take them through the journey, and then you ask them to make a commitment. If they don't commit on that call, your chances of signing them as a client go down exponentially over time. The Goldilocks Zone - If you hire someone too far on the outcome-driven side, they'll be pushy schmucks who pressure people, strongarm prospects, and destroy your reputation. You'll end up with buyers' remorse and angry clients. If you hire someone too relationship-driven with too much empathy, they'll have great conversations and make wonderful friends—but they won't convert anybody into customers.

On this BONUS EPISODE of CASCADE OF HISTORY, Feliks Banel speaks with Randall Adams about the City of Sumner, Washington's surprising plan to give away park benches from the town's Heritage Park, many with memorial plaques still attached. The give-away is scheduled for Tuesday, July 29, 2025. A plaque on one of those free-for-the-taking benches says: In Loving Memory Daniel Stewart Crook Sept. 30, 1955 May 5, 1974 We Lost Someone Very Special Randall Adams knew Danny Crook, and Mr. Adams is upset that the City of Sumner appears to have not made any effort to find Mr. Crook's relatives, who still live in the area.

Derek Sivers is one of the most interesting thinkers of our time. He's been a professional touring musician, a circus performer, and a successful entrepreneur who sold his company for millions – and then gave away his proceeds from the sale. Since selling the company, Derek has become a speaker, writer and author of five books including his latest release, “Useful Not True.”  During our show, we discuss how to overcome self-limiting beliefs, why we over-value our instincts (and what to do instead), and a new (and more useful) approach to setting goals. Derek also shares the one thing that all of his heroes have in common, and his thoughts on what the best thing is that you can pursue in your life. You can learn more about Derek by visiting his website sive.rs. We invite you to share your feedback about this show with us on social media. We're @crazygoodturns on all of the platforms.
